[Haskell-cafe] listing mountpoints and getting their properties in Haskell

[Vasyl Pasternak]

Eugene,

The only Linux function that can do this is `statvfs`. But binding to
it weren't implemented in the current libraries.

Year ago I implemented function that queries free size of the mounted
filesystem. The file is attached. To get other parameters you should
only extend `peek` function of the `Storable` class.

Hope it helps.
